the next day.

With Zhou Shan imprisoned, the rumors in the capital were self-defeating. The court issued a death order, and no one was allowed to talk about it. If he was caught, he would be directly sentenced to a heavy sentence.

However, the impact is still unavoidable for the top management.

Just like the prince's trip today, he visited the grand tutor in name, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see the real intention.

Tai Tuo is one of the three princes, highly respected, a veteran of the three dynasties, and has disciples all over the world. Although he seldom goes to court now, he is the god of Dinghai in the Great Xia Dynasty. With him in the court, there will be no chaos.

He has no son, but only one daughter, an old woman named Ji Xueyan, who has both civil and military skills, is proficient in all kinds of poetry, poetry and painting, has the noble spirit of a famous family, but also has the quietness of a woman. , the leader of the younger generation of Jixia Academy, and the future successor.

Three years ago, they were engaged, and the wedding will be held after the crown prince crown ceremony.

(Note: Crowning ceremony at the age of 16)

Once the two powerful forces join forces, the marriage will come true.

With the support of the Taifu, the support of Jixia Academy, and the influence of the empress, the crown prince's position will be as stable as Mount Tai. Even if Emperor Xia wants to change the crown prince, he has to consider whether there will be turmoil in the Great Xia Dynasty.

Such a genius' reputation spread throughout the capital.

As a Taifu, at his position, the happiness of his daughter is more important than anything else, even if the other party is the prince, if this is confirmed, the marriage will be over, and today's scene will happen.

Taifu lives in Zhuquefang, near Jingxin Lake, not far from Zhang Ronghua's new home.

The prince's chariot stopped at the main gate.

Since the morning, the Taifu's mansion has been watered and cleaned, and it is spotless. The old housekeeper Zhong Bo personally greets him at the door. Although he is a housekeeper, he has been with the Taifu for sixty years and is highly regarded by the Taifu.

The third-rank official in front of the prime minister's door is talking about him!

"The prince has arrived!" Qing'er said.

"I have met His Highness!" Uncle Zhong and others saluted.

Qing'er opened the curtain of the car, and put her right hand on the top of the car to prevent the prince's forehead from touching it.

Stepping on the stool, the prince got out of the car and stopped in front of Uncle Zhong: "Uncle Zhong, please get up!"

"Don't dare!" Uncle Zhong was very measured.

"Master is waiting for you in the lobby, Your Highness please!"

Get out of your way.

The prince stepped into the Taifu's mansion, Zhang Ronghua, Qing'er, and Shuang'er followed behind, and the rest of the people stood outside, on guard to prevent Xiao Xiao from approaching.

Although this is redundant, the rules cannot be broken.

At the front yard, a hundred steps away from the lobby, the prince stopped.

On the ground, using the method of five elements, there are hundreds of runes carved, which are intricate, profound and obscure, and emit a strong power of water.

"This is the master's order."

The prince glanced at him, Uncle Zhong's face remained unchanged, he calmly met his scrutinizing eyes, and smiled slightly: "Since it is the Taifu's decision, I must abide by it alone."

With a single step, he entered the five-element formation.

The majestic power of water circulated, forming a light curtain that enveloped the prince.

Allowing this force to scan his body, the prince did not resist.

Zhang Ronghua squinted his eyes. Although the matter was resolved, even if it was a rumor spread by someone with a heart, the Tai Tuo still didn't feel at ease, and there was the current test scene.

If the crown prince is a woman, under its stimulation, the power of the water element of the five-element formation will dissipate by itself.

If not, the formation is intact.

He was also curious whether the crown prince was a daughter, so he watched carefully, not missing any details.

After a few breaths.

The prince smiled calmly, walked through the Five Elements Formation, and walked towards the lobby.

Uncle Zhong smiled from the bottom of his heart. He was happy for the young lady, so that after marrying, he would be happy.

"No?" Zhang Ronghua didn't know what was going on and felt a little disappointed.

Arrived outside the lobby.

He did not go in, but found a random place to stay outside.

after a little while.

The prince left and the prince led them towards the backyard.

As we got closer, the elegant and light sound of the piano sounded, like the sound of nature, coming from the backyard.

On the edge of the lake, a woman in white was covered with a veil, sitting on a cushion, playing the piano with ten slender hands, even when she heard footsteps behind her, she didn't stop.

Looking at the figure from behind, the country is captivated and the city is captivated, and thousands of troops are enchanted. Her temperament is unique and untainted, like a fairy walking out of a painting.

A few minutes later.

She stopped, stood up from the cushions, made a slight compilation, and said in a nice voice: "I have met His Highness!"

The prince smiled and nodded.

"I haven't seen you for a while, Xueyan, your piano skills have improved again."

"It's far worse than His Highness." Ji Xueyan shook her head.

As they chatted, Zhang Ronghua only listened. Although her face was covered by a veil and her true appearance could not be seen clearly, judging from her facial features, she was a beauty.

Elegant in manners and nobility in everything, she is worthy of being the daughter of a top official family.

Chatted for a while.

The prince and Ji Xueyan left and walked around the lake, chatting while walking. Zhang Ronghua and the other three were waiting here.

Qing'er said: "Shuang'er's next dish?"

There is a chessboard next to the guqin.

"No! You will bully me. If you have the ability, go to His Highness." Shuang'er shook her head like a rattle.

"Boring!"

Looking at Zhang Ronghua, Qing'er's beautiful eyes turned slyly: "Want a plate?"

Zhang Ronghua glanced around, his meaning was self-evident.

"Every time His Highness chats with Miss Xue Yan, it takes an hour or two. This is how we pass the time."

"OK."

The two of them sat down at the chessboard.

Qing'er gave him the white chess piece and proudly said, "I'll give you a move."

Zhang Ronghua smiled and asked him? How much does this look down on him?

Holding a white stone and placing it in the center of the chessboard, Qing'er followed, going back and forth. After a dozen moves, Qing'er's face wrinkled into a bitter melon, and her black stone was defeated by the white stone. , I have to think about it for a long time every time I drop a piece.

next...

After more than twenty moves, her black pieces were forced to a dead end, and her white pieces were ready to slay the dragon. No matter how she made her moves, there was only one result, and that was loss!

"Huh!" Qing'er exhaled a breath, his competitive spirit was aroused, and he refused to admit defeat: "Come again!"

Five sets in a row.

Zhang Ronghua tortured her like a vegetable. He had a terrifying talent. He could learn anything quickly and his chess skills were naturally maxed out.

"Giggle! Have you also tasted the feeling of being abused?" Shuang'er teased.

"It's ego white's turn to go first."

"good!"

The result was still the same. It was Bai Zi who went first, but Qing'er still couldn't change the fate of losing and was tortured again and again.

quite a while.

She accepted her fate: "I can't defeat you!"

"Actually, your chess skills are very good. I just have better luck."

"Huh! If you lose, you lose." Qing'er raised her chin.

Looking at the guqin, her beautiful eyes lit up: "Can you play the piano?"
